1. To avoid Cavitation, we have to increase the Pump size to One or Two Inch;
2. To increase the pressure of the Suction Head, or
3. Decrease the Pump Speed.
3. Why Cavitation will occur in Centrifugal Pump and not in Displacement Pump?
The formation of cavities (or bubbles) is induced by flow separation, or non-uniform flow velocities,
inside a pump casing. In centrifugal pumps the eye of the pump impeller is smaller than the flow area
of pipe. This decrease in flow area of pump results in increase in flow rate. So pressure drop happened
between pump suction and the vanes of the impeller. Here air bubbles or cavities are formed because
of liquid vapour due to increase in temperature in impeller. This air bubbles are transmitted to pump
which forms cavitation.

4. Which Pump is more Efficient Centrifugal Pump or Reciprocating Pump? Questions - Answers
Centrifugal pump. Because flow rate is higher compared to reciprocating pump. Flow is smooth and it 5,843 likes
requires less space to install. Lower initial cost and lower maintenance cost.
5. Why Centrifugal Pump is not called as a Positive Displacement Type of Pump? Like Page Le
The centrifugal has varying flow depending on pressure or head, whereas the Positive Displacement

pump has more or less constant flow regardless of pressure.
Likewise viscosity is constant for positive displacement pump where centrifugal pump have up and
down value because the higher viscosity liquids fill the clearances of the pump causing a higher
volumetric efficiency. When there is a viscosity change in supply there is also greater loss in the
system. This means change in pump flow affected by the pressure change.
One more example is, positive displacement pump has more or less constant efficiency, where
centrifugal pump has varying efficiency rate.

Carbon rings fitted in segments around the shaft and held together by garter or retainer
springs.
Labyrinth mated with shaft serration’s or shaft seal strips.
Water seals where a shaft runner acts as a pump to create a ring of water around the shaft. Use
only treated water to avoid shaft pitting.
Stuffing box using woven or soft packing rings that are compressed with a gland to prevent
leakage along the shaft.
